i have a body it’s pretty tasty
check out my skin hey! it's so pasty
check out my sweat compared to gravy
you should get with me for your safety
backwoods baby eats my daisies
business lady joined the navy

U're'll Come Around

you’re’ll come around
a life with new lease
with less of a cause
and more men to appease
and i know it’ll happen
because lives are lived the same
because i start at the center
and am convinced it’s a game
wipe the dip from my lips
and flick it back in the bowl
one day you’ll tongue up
the telephone pole
maybe you’re’ll die
from the common cold
or your landlord will ignore
you’re sleeping on black mold
but honey it builds character
it’s a kick in the tucus
i’ve got a wrecking crew outside
c’mon come out lookit
come out and
wipe the sweat from my brown
and flick it at a tenant
you have to leave right now
don’t make this unpleasant
wipe the dip from my lips
and flick it back in the bowl
one day you’ll tongue up
the telephone pole

Spread My Bashful Ashes

spread my bashful ashes
over seven jelly donuts
the only place to turn
when the party has been closed up
i didn't know what happened
eager to follow the clapping
stampede comes i’m flattened
in such a steady fashion
spread my bashful ashes
far from the city we grew up in
well and content if they arrive
on the last street i threw up in
i didn't know what happened
eager to follow the clapping
stampede comes i’m flattened
in such a steady fashion
i didn't know what happened
the air outside had blackened
worse than anyone imagined
and I’m wiped off with a napkin

i avert thine eyes
i avert thine eyes
woke up with the lights on
woke up having no clue
to see you on the couch
(weeping)
i want to tell you how much i love you
but how long have i been sleeping
but how long have i been sleeping
woke up with the lights on
woke up without you

i live in the company
of the mice in my walls
all my old friends
have taken the fall
i don’t have any visitors
anymore
no, don’t make me look
at every picture hanging around the house
all i want is to be kept company
by a nimble mouse
but i don’t have any visitors
anymore
would you visit me
or at least pick up the phone
leaving your poor old mother
in this big house all alone

i am willing
to carry the load
because you understand
my morse code
i look into your eyes
on another wavelength
you look into mine
with such sweet strength
there is no other spot
i would rather be
when you love me like
i am willing
to carry the load
because you understand
my morse code
there is no other spot
i would rather be
when you love me like

inaugural fog rolls in
i’ll never be as good as i’ve been
and I just went blank
sooner than later be taken like a bank
yesterday i turned into
yesterday i turned in to
yesterday i turned into
a strawberry
the bugs gather in the streetlights
and i’m ready to become a part
avert thine eyes as I abandon subtlety
and abandon any remaining sense of art
yesterday i turned into
yesterday i turned in to
yesterday i turned into
a strawberry

i don’t know why i’m asking you this
i didn’t think that you give a shit
tongue tied or always wanna quit
but when you know who i am it’s such bliss
you make me circle the grace of god
never thought i’d fall without the cattle prod
i don’t need you
i don’t love you
hey i need you
love you more than anything
you’ve grown spiteful
since we started to share scars
would even crash the car
into the bar under stars
nothing you’ve loved has ever been permanent
so it’s time to trap the runners
suck it up and turn into a stunner
would you experience my delicate hue
become my favorite colors
don’t make me crunch the numbers
i don’t need you
i don’t love you
hey i need you
love you more than anything
